Item Description

A small cabinet sized specimen from Pakistan featuring sharp, pink, tabular, hexagonal, slightly modified crystals sitting atop white Albite. The largest crystal measures 1.5 cm. The piece displays nicely as you can see from the photos, but there is some damage to several, so the piece is not perfect. A classic pink Apatite from Pakistan. As you can see the piece glows a brilliant yellow under SW UV light.
